# How to collect extra profile fields with Get Profile Details in Sales Navigator
> Turn on Get Profile Details to add websites, Twitter URL, open-to-work status and structured work history to every lead your Sales Navigator Leads Scraper collects.
A Sales Navigator search listing only returns a limited set of fields per lead. **Get Profile Details** visits each lead's profile individually and pulls back extra information the listing doesn't include — websites, Twitter URL, open-to-work status, and their full structured work and education history.
This setting is specific to the **Sales Navigator Leads Scraper**.
## How to turn it on
The toggle is **off by default**.
Go to your Sales Navigator Leads Scraper Squid, open the **Settings** tab, and scroll to **Advanced Settings**.
Switch on the **Get Profile Details** toggle. The change applies to the **next** launch.
## What you get
Seven extra columns are filled in your export:
| Column | What's in it |
| -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `WEBSITES` | Websites listed on the profile, comma-separated |
| `TWITTER URL` | The lead's Twitter/X profile, if they've linked one |
| `OPEN TO WORK` | `TRUE` or `FALSE` — whether the lead has the open-to-work badge |
| `CURRENT ROLE DESCRIPTION` | The free-text description of their current position |
| `POSITIONS STRUCTURED` | Full work history as a JSON array |
| `EDUCATIONS STRUCTURED` | Full education history as a JSON array |
| `BANNER URL` | The profile's banner image |
`LINKEDIN PROFILE URL` also changes: with Get Profile Details on, it comes back as the readable form (`linkedin.com/in/john-doe`) rather than the coded one.
When LinkedIn has nothing for a field, the cell is simply **empty** — not `N/A` or `null`. The only exception is `OPEN TO WORK`, which is always either `TRUE` or `FALSE`.
`POSITIONS STRUCTURED` and `EDUCATIONS STRUCTURED` contain **JSON**, not plain text. Excel and Google Sheets will show them as one long string in a single cell. If you need those fields broken out into columns, parse the JSON after export rather than trying to split the cell.
## Does it cost credits?
Yes — **1 extra credit per profile**, on top of the credit already charged for scraping the lead. So a lead collected with Get Profile Details on costs **2 credits** in total instead of 1.
* **1 credit** to scrape the lead from the search listing.
* **1 credit** to fetch that lead's profile details.
On legacy plans both charges are 5, so 10 credits per lead. Check the [Sales Navigator Leads Scraper pricing calculator](https://www.lobstr.io/pricing?product=sales-navigator-leads-scraper#simulator) for an estimate based on your own inputs.
**The details credit is charged per profile visited, whether or not any details come back.** This is different from [email enrichment](/enrichment/emails-sales-navigator#what-happens-if-no-email-is-found), where you're only charged when an email is actually found. If a lead's profile has no websites, no Twitter and no description, you still pay the credit for looking.
## It makes runs considerably slower
Get Profile Details visits every lead's profile as a separate request, and deliberately waits about **5 seconds between profiles** to stay within safe browsing behaviour. That pause, more than the extra request itself, is what slows things down.
In practice, 1,000 leads means roughly **80 minutes of waiting alone**, before any scraping time. Budget for it — and if you only need the extra fields for part of your list, consider running Get Profile Details on a smaller, more targeted Squid instead of your whole search.
## Daily limit: 1,000 profiles per account
LinkedIn caps how many profiles one Sales Navigator account can visit per day, so Get Profile Details is limited to **1,000 profiles per day per synced account**. This is LinkedIn's limit, not lobstr.io's — see [LinkedIn's daily limits](https://www.lobstr.io/blog/linkedin-limits) for the full picture.
When an account reaches it, the run **pauses** with the [`limit_exceeded`](/core-concepts/run-stop-reasons#limit_exceeded) stop reason and resumes automatically about 24 hours later. Your run log shows which limit was hit:
```
⏸️ Run pause triggered by "Account's limit has exceeded." for "" (profiles limit reached the value of 1000).
```
Everything collected before the pause is saved and downloadable — you don't lose the run.
The allowance frees up on a **rolling 24-hour window** that starts from the first profile that account visited, not at midnight. If your account's first profile visit was at 3pm, the allowance resets at 3pm the next day.
The limit is **per synced account**, so syncing more accounts raises your effective daily ceiling — two accounts means 2,000 profiles a day. If a Squid has several accounts linked and one hits its limit, the run switches to another available account and keeps going instead of pausing. See [Sync multiple accounts](/getting-started/account-sync#sync-multiple-accounts).
## Turn off Get Beautiful Profile URL when using this
If you have [Get Beautiful Profile URL](/guides/sales-navigator/beautiful-profile-url) switched on as well, **turn it off**. Get Profile Details already returns the readable profile URL as part of what it fetches, so the second setting adds nothing — it just spends extra requests and eats into its own separate 3,000-per-day allowance for a value you're getting anyway.
